My philosophy is as follows:
I feel like I have been blessed with the opportunity to work with young people and help mold their lives the way teachers and coaches in my past did for me. I feel as if it is my obligation to give them every ounce of my soul to become better future men, husbands, fathers and citizens of society. I feel like it is my job to provide them with the best experience possible for their high school career. I must teach them to be honest, work hard, have class, be respectful and become productive citizens of society. Any and all skills we learn must not only apply to wrestling but must also be transferable to life.
